Why Fractional Owners Should Think Twice
August 14, 2024
In the world of private aviation, there are several options for accessing private jet services. Two popular choices are charter lease programs and fractional jet ownership. While both offer unique benefits, a lease program stands out as a more flexible and cost-effective solution.
1. Flexibility
One of the primary advantages of our Charter Lease Program is its unparalleled flexibility. Fractional ownership requires a long-term commitment, often spanning several years, and locks you into using a specific aircraft type and share size. In contrast, our Charter Lease Program allows you to tailor your flying experience to your immediate needs. Whether you need a smaller jet for a quick trip or a larger aircraft for a transcontinental journey, you have the freedom to choose the best fit for each flight.
2. Cost Efficiency
With a charter lease program, the aircraft owner gets the benefits of owning an aircraft with none of the headaches. At Ventura Air Services, for example, the team will handle everything from maintenance, to crewing, and beyond. The costs of owning are offset by the use of the aircraft for chartered trips. As an owner in the Charter lease program, our aircraft owners have full access to our fleet for any of their trip needs. This means that in the event thatof their aircraft isbeing busy, they will have no issues booking their trips. Fractional ownership, on the other hand, involves significant upfront costs, ongoing maintenance fees, and other hidden expenses. These costs can add up quickly, making it a less economical option for many flyers.
3. No Long-Term Commitment
The Charter Lease Program with Ventura offers the convenience of private jet access without the long-term commitment required by fractional ownership. Whether the travel needs change or you want to explore other options, you are not tied down by a lengthy contract. This flexibility is especially beneficial for businesses that may experience fluctuating travel demands or for individuals who prefer not to be locked into a rigid agreement.
5. Simplified Logistics
Fractional ownership can come with complex logistics, including maintenance scheduling, crew management, and regulatory compliance. Ventura Air Services’ Charter Lease Program takes care of all these details for you. Our experienced team handles all aspects of aircraft management, allowing you to focus on enjoying your flight. From maintenance to crew scheduling, we ensure that every trip is smooth and hassle-free.
6. Guaranteed Availability
Our Charter Lease Program provides guaranteed access to a fleet of aircraft, ensuring that you have a jet ready when you need it. Fractional ownership, on the other hand, can sometimes result in scheduling conflicts, especially during peak travel times. With our program, you have the assurance that your travel plans will not be disrupted due to aircraft availability issues.
